Maria's P.O.V
I slowly tiptoe to the other end of the corridor.
The forbidden area for workers.
The sobbing sounds become a lot closer .
Maybe I shouldn't go .
What if I see Young Master Richard?
He'll definitely roast me and share my meat with his friend.
I should probably go back.
Yep, that's a good idea.
No , no can't be that bad.
Fine , I'm going.
I don't care about you Young Master, do whatever.
I walk faster and reach Vivian's door.
Oh no , this is bad .
Maybe I shouldn't go in , you know
What if he's just screams at me for coming to her
He warned me remember?
But she's nice to me right?
Looks like I've got to risk it . Bear with me please.
I knock once.
No response
I knew this was a bad idea. Told ya.
"Mom I don't need you telling me that you told me so. Just leave " - she shouts from inside.
Mom?
Who? Me ?
I don't think she was referring to me right?
'Say something dummy.'
Fine , no need to be so rude ugh
" Um.... I'm s-sorry , Vivian. This is Maria . If you don't mind, I could just jus-
What I'm I sorry for? I don't know
"Come in please "
That sounds good
Phew, took so much effort
I turn the knob of the door and get in .
Her room looks clean and tidy.
Me? Surprised? Nah, not really
She motions for me to sit in her bed beside her.
I do but I sit at the end of the bed like I did the other day.
I just can't sit comfortably when I go to a new place.
She slowly wipes the tears on her face with a tissue.
She throws it and it lands on a pile of used tissues I didn't see earlier.
"Maria,I.. I'm sorry you have to see me like this "- she says . She seems so weak and the look in her eyes are so sad.
"Please don't be . Please don't cry" - I say cause I feel tears sting my eyes.
